A renewed sense of sacredness in all things...

Change is in the air. Cosmic cycles large and small are unfolding throughout the universe, which are beyond our control. The mystics knew of these things eons ago. For us, the age of Pisces is fading into the twilight and the New Age of Aquarius is dawning. It is irreversible.

These will be times of profound inner transformation and self-discovery. And the pace of this change is accelerating daily. Those who fear this change will not evolve nor will they have an easy time of it. Those who do will awaken to their true spiritual nature and cosmic heritage.

The birth of Aquarius, a time love, peace and harmony, will bring our fears to the surface so that we might have the opportunity to confront and release them. There will be some challenges and some pain for each of us. But there will also be a sense of renewal and, finally, joy and ecstasy. 

The age of materialism and self-gratification is coming to an end. In its place, we will look within ourselves for understanding and a new sense of awareness that will bring a greater sense of meaning, purpose and peace to our lives. Love will guide our intentions. Fear and ego-based thoughts will no longer be appropriate or accepted. All of this will have a major impact on how we view sexuality.

The Age of Aquarius will last some 2,160 years. You will have this life and other future lives to experience its magnificence. Its theme will be love, unity, harmony, sacredness, peace and happiness. It will not happen overnight, but it will happen. As this golden age unfolds, we will find ourselves putting aside the traditional concepts of male-female unions that have brought us to this point in our cosmic journey as a human family. They aren't working because, for the most part, ego, control and fear were their basis. That is now ending.

The New Age of spiritual partnering will be based upon unconditional love, an all-embracing friendship, openness and the freedom to be oneself without fear of insult, judgment or retribution. 

This new awareness about relationships will take some time to occur, but new, visionary partners will no longer feel a need to be linked to one another by a legal document or an ornate wedding ring. Rather, their union will flourish because of an unselfish desire to be together out of true love. And such, relationships will be far more rewarding than those based upon ego and fear. 

Aquarius will also bring about a renewed sense of sacredness in all things, including female-male couplings. Every day the feminine energy on this planet strengthens and makes its presence and influence felt, after thousands of years of suppression by male dominated thinking. Men and women will no longer bond as unequal opposites. Rather, they will partner as balanced, spiritual beings who are fully aware that their union with one another is an important part of their ongoing, cosmic evolution. 

This renewed sense of meaning at the male-female level will bring with it far more joy, intensity, passion and lasting fulfillment than we have ever experienced before. These kinds of partnerships will have a spiritual foundation. And the lovers and children that spring from such unions will usher in an era of sacred sexuality.

It is sad to see what has happened to sexuality over the past 2000 years. Without a doubt it has lost much of its cosmic meaning. Christian religions have turned it into something that is filled with guilt and shame. The media has used it to satisfy their need for greed. We have overused it to satisfy our desire for self-gratification in the material world. Let's face it. We're lost on this one. How did we reach this point? By allowing ourselves to follow the opinions and judgments of others who have a vested interest in this area.

And yet, at the other extreme, I'm sure we will all agree that there are those precious moments when sexuality can be the most profound way to express our love for another. I can think of no other experience that can compare to the physical ecstasy and emotional pleasure derived from the intense feelings of oneness created as a result of unselfish, sexual intimacy between two individuals who truly care for one another. This gift of love did not happen by accident. It is all a part of the divine plan. Over the years we have drifted from its true meaning and intent.

The New Age will also bring with it a profound change in the reasons why we enter into romantic partnerships with another. The institution of marriage is failing miserably because of expectations, needs, control, fear, domination, judgments, and other ego-based actions. I am convinced that the future of long term partnerships and sexuality will have a sacred basis to it. When one awakens spiritually, all things become sacred.
